QuestionCan I record the camera images on my I phone ?
Asked 9 years ago by Brad.
- Answer Sure can, we have a new Iphone and did just that. You enter the D-Link app and select the function to take a picture and it captures to the Iphone. Of course the images are also recorded on the memory card in the camera. We have a 32 GB card in the camera, ($17), and it recorded 2.5 months worth of video before filling up. We then changed the recording to overwrite the oldest video so it never runs out and captures the newest video. The functionality of the camera is fascinating, you can change camera parameters from a remote computer of smartphone. Including noise level capture trigger, movement capture trigger area, SD card format, you can talk to occupants of your house remotely, capture still photos on your smartphone, and others.

QuestionWill this work in low light?
Asked 8 years ago by Paul.
- Answer Yes. It will automatically switch to infrared LEDs and black and white video for "low light" video. I can see a good 25' with mine. I am losing some of the infrared intensity because of the placement of mine, but the video to that distance is clear. Past that looks foggy.

Questiondoes this camera (DCS-2630L) support both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wifi band?
Asked 9 years ago by bigD510.
- Answer Yes, but keep in mind that the 5Ghz range is much smaller than the 2.4Ghz range. This camera works well, but can be finicky with regard to the wifi connection. I would've liked to use the 5Ghz band, but its much more stable on the 2.4.

QuestionCan this camera be used without wifi? Will it work connected to a router with a cable?
Asked 9 years ago by Tom.
- Answer No, this camera has no wired network port, which means wifi is necessary. It's unfortunate that D-link decided to do this, since it was nice to have the option to have a wired connection. Setup is a bit more difficult without a network port.
